Plan ahead with confidence.
Live fully, with peace of mind.

Securely store and share your Advance Care Directive or Goals of Care document.

Touchstone Life Care is a complete end-of-life planning platform that makes it simple, secure, and empowering to plan for the future – on your terms.

We bring together Advance Care Planning, Goals of Care, and Legacy Planning in one easy-to-use digital platform, created by a medical doctor.

Whether you’re navigating health decisions, preparing for the unexpected, or making your wishes clear to loved ones and healthcare providers, we’re here to ensure your voice is heard when it matters most, even at 3 am in an emergency room.

A completed form is just the beginning.

Make sure the right people can access it when it matters most.

If your plan isn’t shared, your wishes may not be followed - and your family may face confusion or conflict.
A printed form on the fridge might never reach the people making decisions about you in an emergency.
A conversation is great. A completed form is great. But unless it can be found when it’s needed - it’s not enough. That’s why you need Touchstone Life Care.

"I can't believe that him scrolling the questionnaire on his phone on a sunny afternoon 2 years ago would become so important. We very much wanted to respect his wishes and help the doctors understand the life he wanted. The trauma team were so impressed that he had this readily available and easy to read plan, and were able to make decisions based on this. I very much recommend that everyone has a Touchstone Life Care plan as the decision making for his care was made so much easier."

I live in Australia, my sister lives in New Zealand and my brother lives in the UK. This would have been so useful when our dad passed away 4 years ago. Knowing what he wanted would really have made a difference.

My mum nearly lost her life last year. Her aged care facility gave a copy of her Advance Care Directive to the ambulance staff but it got lost somewhere along the way. She’d put so much careful thought into that plan and it was heartbreaking to realise it was totally useless when it was most needed.

Dad had a paper advance care plan in place. But it turned out he’d ticked ‘yes’ he wanted CPR and ‘yes’ to Do Not Resuscitate so his doctors didn’t know what to do when he went into cardiac arrest and neither did I. It was horrible.

My dad and I did our questionnaires together. It got us talking about things we had never discussed before. It was so easy.

founder of Touchstone Life Care

Touchstone Life Care’s founder, Dr Merran Cooper, is on a mission to improve the system and culture for people at the end of their life.

“So many people deny themselves a good death by not addressing it soon enough, if at all. They deprive themselves of some of the most loving intimate forgiving and healing conversations. Our medical systems, invasive technologies and some treatment regimens often deny these things to our dying patients too, even if that is not the intention.”
